Louise Story is executive producer of the New York Times's live-stream programming. She is helping the Times create this new medium, which is aimed at the Facebook Live audience and has a focus on interactivity and visual journalism. She has spent a decade at the Times. During this span, she has helped on multimedia and strategy initiatives and has been a leading investigative reporter. Her award-winning journalism has spurred major reforms and law enforcement cases. In 2013–2014, she was on the small newsroom team that created the Innovation Report. The report was pivotal to the Times,> which has now adopted all of the report's main recommendations.

Video that can change in real time based on what the audience says is enabling all kinds of creativity. In this workshop, Louise Story will explain how the Facebook Live platform works to produce this new medium and share what the Times has found resonates most with its audience. The session will include a workshop challenge in which you’ll work in small groups to create and share your own livestreams.
